Default The Electra Glide
In 2021, Harley Davidson still sells a model named after a 50+ year old advancement in motorcycle technology. An advancement that long ago became universal.

No other manufacturer would do that. No other manufacturer would dare.

Yet the Electra Glide name continues, proudly rolling into the future.

How can you not love that?

The Chevrolet Corvette, Camaro, and the Ford Mustang might disagree with you on this!

While it's been a good business model for them, I don't know that I'd exactly call it daring.
